Okay. . .how the hell do we get invited to the damn premiere for this movie??

Okay, I'm schmoozing now, but I always love an excuse to wear my dress blues.

Okay. . .but in ALL seriousness. . .
PREMIERE PARTY.
I've been a fan of the show for quite some time, but only active in this little community for a short time. I have, however, noticed that this crowd is capable of making VERY big things happen.
Can I expect a massive event to herald the premiere of this movie? Something like holding our very OWN massive premiere event at some theatre somewhere?
Yes, I sound like the pirates in "Pirates of the Carribean" . . .trying to decide what they're going to eat. . ."We should decide now so we'll know when the time comes."
I'm rambling.
I shut up now.

Actually, that's not a bad idea- Pick someplace, say, middle of the road, like the midwest, and take over a theater- That would be way cool-

Ummm... if I am reading the same thing you are, it was due to outside forces. The studio wanted a "potential springboard" for a continuing series, rather than an epilog to the one that got canceled.
Now if that is the outside force, then I suspect you'd be more than happy with such a change.
That is the way I read it too Drakon, and I must say I would much rather have a script and movie w/ the intention of springboarding into a series than anything else.

"Holy Shit" indeed.
I was afraid he was writting a movie to "wrap things up" as one news site put it. It should be to get things going again. I mean, two hours of Firfly is awesome; but it doesn't compare to the hundreds of hours we could get it it came back to the small screen.
Awesome if that was the delay. Though...couldn't someone have said something?

Well. . .from what I've seen, Joss, Tim and Chris are kind of 'protective' about their fans. . .and I don't think Joss would want to tell us, "Yeah, we're writing a 'springboard' script." and get us all wound up just to have studio execs tell HIM later, "Nah. . .nevermind. . .just wrap it up."
That would suck.
I've noticed in the posts that Joss, Tim and Chris have been putting on various boards, they're trying VERY hard to keep us encouraged without giving us a bunch of 'maybes' and 'unconfirmeds'. But they ARE telling us EVERYTHING that they can say WITH CERTAINTY.
Damn that's good leadership. I'm glad these guys are in charge of something.

Since Firefly *is* a worldwide event - not just limited to the states, I would say it ought to be in the middle of Hawaii, Tahiti, or something.

"The original script was shelved and Joss wrote something else entirely. Something less of an epilogue and more of a potential springboard to a series return."
"You will be hearing some stuff on the OB towards the end of this month... All the plans etc are still in place, they were just delayed while details were ironed out."
Oh, happy day! This is just so incredibly shiny news.
"... a potential springboard to a series return."
That sure sounds hopeful to me.

Intersting symmetry too.
Joss spending a huge amount of time and work to craft a great script, then it getting shelved and forced to crank a new one out real quick.
Of course, time wise, it was a bit different this time. Like 7 months on the first script, followed by one on the second, instead of however long on serenity, then a weekend on The Train Job.
